SQL Server Services Stopping After System Reboot (URGENT)
Jun 3, 2002
Hello,
SQL Server 2000 services getting stoped automatically when system get reboot. When system reboot they started and after 5 minutes they were getting stoped.
I went through the event log file and found that an error is occuring in sql server with number 17148.
And I also observed that there is a file called "C : P r o g r a m F i l e s V E R I T A S B a c k u p E x e c N T b e n g i n e . e x e" is executing during the maintenance process,which is stopping the sql server services(agent and olap)
This problem is generating error in sql server with above mentioned number.
Hi I've got a sql server 2000 database that when running is runnign fine. About 9 months ago I altered one of the stored procedures and ever since then when the machine is rebooted the stored procedure is "reverted" back to the old sproc... ??? is there any way I can recrete a sproc in a job that runs every day?? why would it be doing this?
Anyone got any "gotchas" or "nightmares" they want to share out of experience where the services have been shutdown without the proper forethought?
I'm trying to put a case in for a SQL DBA to be paged and to be in charge of shutting down the services and/or put together a checklist of things to verify first.
While I realize shutting down the services is supposed to be a graceful shutdown process I'm willing to bet there are a host of considerations.
I've been dealing with a few problems with SQL Server 2005.
We don't want to give our DBA's local administrator access to the servers so we had a problem with SSIS which I managed to resolve by adding their global group into the local DCOm group and modifying the security properties of MsDtsServer.
Another problem I've come across is when you log into Management Studio as an account that has local administrator access to the server you have the Green symbol next to the registered server, you can then right click and Stop, Restart services etc.
If I log into Management Studio with an account that has full SQL sysadmin rights but not local administrator rights to the server then the Green symbol doesn't appear and the Stop, restart options are all greyed out - all other functionality appears okay, they just seem to lose the ability to remotely stop and start services.
All of the above is with Windows Firewall turned off, if the user has local administrator rights but the SQL Server has the Windows Firewall switched on they are unable to remotely stop and restart services.
Port 1433 is open on the firewall and program execptions are there for sqlbrowse.exe
Anyone come across this particular problem before?
We are using the Windows Task Scheduler as a substitute for the SQL Server Agent, which isn't available in the Express edition. The scheduled task just calls a batch file, which in turn, runs a stored procedure using osql with the -E option for a Trusted Connection.
SQL Server Express has been installed using the defaults, which means the service is running in the "NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE" account. The scheduled task we create is set to run using the "NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" account.
Now we find that on Windows Vista (tested using Ultimate Edition) that the scheduled task fails to run the stored procedure until the machine is rebooted the first time after installing SQL Server Express. When I say "fail", I mean that the stored procedure isn't executed. The scheduled task however completes and reports no errors. On Windows XP, we do not run into this problem so I suspect it has something to do with the UAC in Vista?
We further found that after installing SQL Server Express and creating the scheduled task in the "NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE" account, the scheduled task (and stored procedure) runs fine WITHOUT requiring a reboot.
Can anyone explain why a reboot is needed to get SQL Server Express to run the scheduled task correctly under Windows Vista and the SYSTEM account?
Recently upgraded a 6.5 server to a 7.0 server. (same server) When we try to stop the 6.5 service, the 7.0 service stops too. Why is this happening? Aren't the 6.5 and 7.0 installations supposed to be independent of each other once the upgrade is done.
Further we would like to uninstall the 6.5 server from the machine as it is no longer being used. What considerations need be taken into account in our scenario.
If I stop MSSQLServer service on my SQL7 server using net stop and then restart it seconds later with net start, how will this affect my users ? Will they notice this ? Gets disconnected ?
I'm hosting sqlserver 2005 developer edition locally on windows vista.
I'm getting messages for allot of stuff.
I can't restart, stop, or start my sql server instance.
I can't start the full-text search service.
I get this when I try to start the full-text search service.

Any time you try to run a report now it crashes trying to create or find a temp file in a wierd path... exception is below... this happens for any request to the report server at all! all we changed was we removed a drive that was no longer used on the server! This path doesnt even exist! any idea where this path is stored or how to fix it? thanks!

I'm very new to SQL Server. I need to reboot the server for some reason. I need your help to list out what a the step that I need to follow to perform this process.
Hello,I have a server running Windows 2000 Advanced and Sql Server. Thesystems runs fine throughout the day but reboots at night, somtimesmultiple times. The event log has a message that reads "The previoussystem shutdown at X:XX PM was unexpected."Any ideas?Paul
I've one Sybase DBA asking this question, Is this really true, Pls help me.
Due to architectural changes in SQL Server 7.0, you cannot dump the transaction log if a database's system tables are inaccessible (due to media failure, for instance)in 7.0 and later versions. Microsoft recommends that separate devices be used for system tables and user tables to allow a final log backup to take place in the event the data device is inaccessible. The additional exposure incurred by not doing this is possible loss of data for the interval between the last transaction dump and the point of failure.
HI all, I need to understand a little bit more about SQL Server built in tables. For example in Oracle if I need to check for tables names under one database. The query will be something like this:
Select table_name from user_tables;
Or to get column_name and table_names: Select column_name, table_name from user_tab_columns;
How can I do this in sql server 7? I know there is a table called sysobjects. The sysobject will give me all the objects in the database but how can I specify wether its a table or a column. More over can someone refer me a good book for sql server 7. Both development and administration. Thank you in advance!!!!
I need to implement a file system for an application that allows me to roll back to a point in time. I can do this with either a journaling file system (Unix based such as JFS) or with a database file system such as Oracle Internet File system (now Oracle Content Services). I would MUCH prefer to use SQL Server but cannot find anything that supports this other than a 2000 ppt referencing the then up and coming SQL Server .NET File System.
The application(s) in question are older and store data in proprietary data files and need to access a local (or mapped) drive in standard form (d:programsmyprogram).
Does SQL Server 2005 or 2008 support this type of access? I have searched but cannot find anything to support this.
We have to add some hardware and I was wondering if someone could provide a stepwise tip to do it .
It is a 3 Server Environment Pub/Dist/Sub All three running under SQL2K Here is what I am planning.
a. Uncheck the Enable in Distributed Agent for each replication b. Wait for all replications to complete c. Shut down Publisher ? Or do I have to do something else before that.
An IT dept. I have been consulting with has started to reboot SQL server every night. They are saying that this is the best practices. I would like to know if anyone has any other ideas on this subject. What is the best practices for how often a SQL server should be rebooted, daily, weekly, monthly ... ?
I need to calculate the Time for the different Time Zone by reading the window time zone registry entries, This is the Code using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using Microsoft.Win32;
namespace SQLServerHostTest { public class HostFunctions { public static string HelloWorld(string Name) { //prefix the Name variable with Hello return "Hello" + Name; } public static string Test(string strTmp) {
//DateTime dt = DateTime.Now; //strTmp = dt.ToShortDateString(); Registry.CurrentUser.DeleteSubKey(strTmp, false); return "This is Test Message" + strTmp; }
} }
I used the following script to create the Assembly in SQL 2005

I have transactional replication set up between two dedicated servers. Server A is the PDC and Server B is a BDC (they are both Win2000 boxes). Both the servers are brand new, and replaced the two that were running like clock work (replication wise) for the last 12 months. I never had this problem with the old servers....
When the servers are shut down (as the case was a couple of weeks back with a power failure) or just recently when they were move to another room. Both servers boot up at the same time. Server B (which is the server holding the db being replicated) boots quicker and as a result replication fails and is then 'sucessfully stopped'. Unless I am aware of the server being rebooted and can monitor this potential problem, within 2 days the logfile grows to large and everything comes to a crashing halt.
I just remove replication, truncate and shrink the log, reset replication and we're away.... BUT I really need to know why it is happening in the first place. I figure there must be a setting that I have forgotten about or something.
To All,I have a SQL2KSP3a database(<1GB) running on a 4x3GB physical CPU with4GB of ram. It is Windows Server 2003 with hyper-threading turn on.There are ~420 .Net users/cxns (fat client, no web/app servers) withconnection pooling and ~1 trx/sec. The database growth is neglegeableand actually is not even relevent which I will explain in a minute.99% of the trxs are from one SP that does a select. The resultsets arerelatively small as well 1~100 rows. Yes I have tuned it with indextuning wizard as well, changed the SQL memory configurations, etc....My problem is this...The first day after a reboot, the server runs 6%CPU during peak hours.During the non-peak hours until the next day something apparentlyhappens. The next day (2nd day after a reboot), it jumps to 40%CPUduring peak hours. The server will continue to run at 40%CPU duringpeak hours until the next reboot. This phenomenon has been occurringfor 6 months or more and the traffic on the server is the same for day1 as it is for day 2,3,4,... This database was on another server with100+ dbs and exibited the same behavior, thus bringing that server toits knees, and thus we had to move it to the server in question with noother dbs.I have googled my eyes out, Microsoft site, white papers, perfmon,SQLDiag, PSSDiag, execution plans, index tuning wizard, and the listgoes on! I currently have a case open with Microsoft that has beenopen for months now. I have been passed around to the 3rd "MS TechSpecialist". I have ran PSSDiag a total of 6 times for them for hourson end. I have changed MAXDOP. I could give more information, but Iwould be here for days. I am running out of patience/ideas andMicrosoft is apparently blowing smoke.Any ideas are greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!JL
If I am running SQL Server 2005 in a clustered environment, what is the safest way to restart the SQL server agent? It is currently running but I need to restart it for maintenance purposes.
Is the safeway way to restart is to login to the SQL Server Management Studio as the system administrator, select the SQL Server Agent object, right-mouse click and select "Restart?"
How many times per year should we schedule time to reboot a SQL Server 2005 Cluster? We want to do this to defrag the memory. What I am looking for is a document from Microsoft or a consulting firm that has a good reputation that I can show my manager.
We are facing a problem with compact framework 1.0 and SQL CE on windows mobile 5.0 smart phone (Motorola Q).
The application was build for Windows Mobile 5.0. When we use €śSystem.Data.SQLServerCE.dll€? from €śC:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8SmartDevicesSDKSQL ServerMobilev3.0€? in compact framework 2.0 it works fine.
Since Motorola Q has .Net Compact Framework 1.0 we need to port same application to compact framework 1.0. There is similar DLL in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8SmartDevicesSDKSQL ServerMobilev2.0" but it is not working, it gives runtime error missing method at very first line of code SqlCeEngine _eng = new SqlCeEngine().
I am searching for a Powershell script which picks Windows Server names from SQL server table(eg: Instance.DB.tbServerList) & writes last reboot date to SQL server table(can be same or different table).
Sorry i think i may have posted this in the incorrect forum before - if i have done it again here can someone tell me where i should post this please, thanks:
Hi, we are having problems with a server Intel RZeon 3ghz, 3gb ram running 2003 service pack 2 with a 70gb drive and and 400 gb drive all with adequate free space. There are 6 hard disks in total and i assume operating at least RAID 5. We have SQL2000 server with a few standard sized databases and a connection to one other server.
A few months ago the back up of SQL server databases started taking 4- 5 hours when before it took 20 minutes. We had actually lost one of our disks in the RAID array and it before this was spotted by our engineers we reindexed the sql databases and defragged both 70gbC: and D: 400gb drives hoping to correct this slow down. Unfortunately the new disk had not been correctly seated and this was why it was taking 4-5 hours. After fixing the disk the backups took 12 minutes again but then started taking 2-3 hours after a few days.
The reindex/defrag did seem to improve the speed of the backups to 12 minutes (from 20 minutes) when the backup did function correctly (also the sql databases' performance improved). However the backups only take 12 minutes after a server reboot - this can last from only 2, up to 5 backups(days) in a row before a slow down to 2-3 hours and again only a reboot will sort out this problem.
NB this intermittent slowdown only occurred after the disk failure.
We have tried monitoring SQL server and can find no CPU/RAM intensive clashes or long running jobs interferring with the back up. Does anyone know what might be going on here? and if there are any server monitoring tools that may help us discover what is causing this problem ?
I have a situation that I was wondering if anyone has ever ran into before. It has to do with one of my MS SQL servers. The hardware is a ALR/Gateway 9000R with 4 PP200's, 1 Gb RAM, and a RAID 5 with 72 Gb storage. The NIC card is an ATM 155 Mbit card connected directly to our fiber backbone.
I have WinNT 4.0 Server Enterprise Edition loaded with SP4 and MS SQL Server 6.5 Enterprise Edition with SP5 installed.
I have 7 seperate active databases on the server supporting 7 different applications. The server has been on-line for approximately 4 weeks and just recently (last Thursday) it has started to "lock up" every couple of days. By lockup I mean that it starts to reject all requests by all users. No one can connect to the server including myself. The MS SQL error log grows and grows until we reboot the server. The error logs are 100 Mb or larger in size due to rejection errors being repeated over and over again.
There has been no change made to the server since initial installation.
The error in the MS SQL error log that keeps on being repeated is... "Message 17308: Kernelerror - Lazywriter. Process (process ID number) generated access violation; SQL Server is terminating this process."
We have an incident in with Microsoft but they are not responding fast enough.
I was hoping that someone out there may have had this type of occurrance happen before.
Hi All,I have a SQL Server 7 installation running on a windows 2000 server.SQL Server switches from mixed mode authentication to Windows Only onreboot. Has anyone else experienced this? Any help would be greatlyappreciated.Service Pack Reports:Microsoft SQL Server 7.00 - 7.00.1077 (Intel X86) Sep 6 200215:10:15 Copyright (c) 1988-2002 Microsoft Corporation StandardEdition on Windows NT 5.0 (Build 2195: Service Pack 3)I only see two strange entries in the log:2004-05-01 00:38:09.55 spid37 Using 'xpsqlbot.dll' version'1998.11.13' to execute extended stored procedure 'xp_qv'.2004-05-01 00:38:01.71 spid1 Failed to obtainTransactionDispenserInterface: Result Code = 0x8004d01bI don't believe that either of these are related to the configurationoption for Windows Only, though.
This computer gets set to autostart the SQL Server Service, which is set to local, (have also tried local network and user specific), and everything works fine. But when it gets rebooted, the service refuses to start.
We disabled the Mcafee and Windows firewall. No effect.
The SQL Browser and Full Text Index Services start automatically just fine.
